With today’s announcement via an open letter that they have closed on the Arlington Park property, the Chicago Bears have taken another small step towards leaving the Windy City for a new state-of-the-art stadium in the village of Arlington Heights.
There still hasn’t been an official announcement that a domed stadium will be built on the property, but that’s clearly the end game for the franchise.
“There is still a tremendous amount of due diligence work to be done to determine if constructing an enclosed state-of-the-art stadium and multi-purpose entertainment district is feasible,” the open letter reads.
